Celebrating the sculptural qualities of natural, vegetable-tanned leather, coaxed and manipulated into organic forms from vessels to furniture.
“I create engaging, tactile objects that evoke comfort and invite contemplation and touch; informed by a beachcomber’s eye, remote island life and long walks, observing the natural world”.
Focus:
Cordwaining (shoe making), leather molding and leather upholstery

Available for commissions
I work with vegetable tanned leather source from Italy and England. Each hide comes with a certificate of authenticity. It is produced under the strictest quality controls.
Vegetable tanned leather is tanned using water and organic vegetable matter such as oak bark, mimosa and chestnut bark.
The leather that I use is a waste material from the meat and dairy industry.
If it is not turned into something useful it goes to landfill or is incinerated.
